This is a striking and detailed promotional wall map made for the A.J. Harter piano company of Altoona, PA. The large top panel advertising the pianos they exclusively carry, with a fine illustration of the Florentine Grand piano of the Ivers & Pond Piano Company at center. The lower panel illustrates six pianos. A long list gives 27 specifications for these "High Grade Pianos" with pricing from $175 to $1,000. The map of Pennsylvania is highly detailed and beautifully colored by county. A portion of the verso is an index to counties and towns. An uncommon advertising map.
